[quote=Anonymous]I think you are a bit out of touch with what families want. For most I know, it isn't an either/or. On any given day, we might work on math in the morning (although one kid is learning subtraction with skittles so that's an afternoon thing), going for a walk in the nature area near us and talking about different flowers, plants, bugs, etc followed by seeing who can race to the large boulder the fastest. Then after lunch we venture to the pool for swim lessons followed by an afternoon at the pool practicing our stroke, diving and searching for coins (also practicing math) and seeing who can make the biggest splash. Different variations every day, but there is always a mix of playing just to have fun, playing to learn, and basic learning. [/quote]
